Description: Modification 000001:

The purpose of this modification is to update the following:
Section I.A – Project Requirements:

Edited: Projects must evaluate crop performance (i.e., yield and potential for profitability) and environmental performance over at least three (3) annual cycles to provide empirical data on newer varieties of energy crops relative to traditional cropping and pasture systems. For herbaceous species, this must include at least 3 harvest cycles. For short rotation woody crop species, this must include at least 1 harvest cycle.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) announces a notice of availability of funds for financial assistance to accelerate research and development related to the production of affordable and sustainable non-food energy crops that can be used as feedstocks for the production of price-competitive biofuels and bioproducts. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) supports EERE’s performance metrics to reduce U.S. dependence on foreign oil, increase the viability and affordability of renewable energy technologies and processes, and spur growth in the domestic bioeconomy.

Applicants must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) at https://www.sam.gov before submitting an application and must provide a valid Dun and Bradstreet Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number in the application. Failure to comply may result in a determination that the applicant is not qualified to receive a Federal award, and that determination could be used as a basis for making a Federal award to another applicant.

The full FOA is posted on the EERE Exchange website at https://eere-exchange.energy.gov. To apply to this FOA, Applicants must register with and submit application materials through EERE Exchange, EERE’s online application portal.
